White House asks Congress for additional $24bn in Ukraine aid
US has so far given Ukraine more than $113bn in aid since Russia invaded in February 2021
The White House is asking Congress for an additional $24bn in Ukraine aid “and other international needs” such as countering China, including $13.1bn for defense, senior administration officials revealed on Thursday.
The US has so far given Ukraine more than $113bn in aid since Russia invaded in February 2021. The extra funds for defense would push the total amount of US military aid to Ukraine to around $60bn. The US is still Ukraine’s biggest funder in its defense against Russia.
